8. Can you guarantee that the SMS alert will reach me? |
| Although we will make every effort to ensure that the SMS alerts are sent out reliably, we cannot guarantee that you will receive them. The service depends on the service providers in the countries covered by the SMS alerts, and we cannot guarantee continuous service in all of them. |
9. Will I continue to receive booking enquiries by email, phone and fax? |
| Yes, email booking enquiries continue to be sent to you by email, telephone and fax. |
10. Why are you setting up SMS alerts? |
There are two reasons. Firstly we know that our visitors like replies to their email enquiries as soon as possible, and this service will enable our advertisers, who may not have constant access to their emails, to respond immediately to email booking enquiries.
Secondly, on the pretext of protecting their customers from receiving spam, some internet service providers block emails without the sender or the recipient knowing about it. By give our advertisers the option of receiving SMS alerts, we make sure they can receive all the email enquiries sent to them. |
